Good morning Free Rangers.
I'm making plans for the summer and early fall this morning. Gotta make those reservations early!
Will be cat sitting for Memorial Day weekend, so will probably be home.

Congress is the reason why the universities have cracked down so hard

I think it is time to birth a new nation. America is broken, a Zionist warmongering hegemon that is in free fall. Sadly I don't see a way to politically save ourselves. I think the sons and daughters of this dysfunctional nation must take control of our own lives and live a better, more fulfilling life by escaping the system. I've included some different approaches below involving building community or going it alone. And then there's the news so we can keep track of the coming train wreck for the US.

Album of the Week - 5-11-24
Submitted by joe shikspack on Sat, 05/11/2024 - 3:00pmAfternoon folks!
We've got some great music this week starting off with Muddy Waters' classic Woodstock album and an album by New Orleans piano player Cousin Joe. After that we've got serious blues-rock with albums from Duke Tumatoe & The Power Trio, Downchild, Roy Buchanan (I think it's his last one) and Creedence Clearwater Revival's Bayou Country. After that we've got DC localish band Root Boy Slim's first album and we finish off with a straight 80's rock album from the Swimming Pool Q's.
Enjoy the tunes and have a great weekend!
